However if you have no access to DNS then you can use the hosts file as in step 2. Note: If you have access to working DNS then your client can use DNS to resolve the Configuration Manager server management point.
Perform the following on a workgroup computer as Administrator In addition, I assume that you have installed the Remote Assistance features on your server and client computers. If you have access to a fully functioning DNS then go ahead and start at Step 3. Note: In the steps below I am assuming all client computers are WorkGroup joined with no access to DNS. System Center 2012 Configuration Manager requires that distribution point computers be members of a domain.
You cannot use the client push installation method to install the client on workgroup computers.You cannot deploy software to users of workgroup computers.Active Directory discovery methods cannot discover computers in workgroups.Global roaming is not supported, because clients cannot query Active Directory Domain Services for site information.Workgroup clients cannot locate management points from Active Directory Domain Services, and instead must use DNS, WINS, or another management point.
Microsoft have listed a number of limitations to supporting workgroup computers: As workgroup clients are not joined to a domain they will need some help to communicate with the Configuration Manager management point as they will not be able to retrieve these values from Active Directory and they may have no (or limited) access to DNS. Before we can do anything with our workgroup clients (including remote control) we need our Configuration Manager client software installed but before we do that we have to prepare our clients for this installation by preparing them. Workgroup based computers pose their own challenges as they lack many of the security benefits of Domain membership and as a result lack access to resources. Both Remote Assistance and Remote Desktop Client are Windows technologies. it's a tool provided by Configuration Manager). In the above list, only Remote Control is specific to Configuration Manager (i.e. System Center 2012 Configuration Manager offers three methods from within the console to remotely control other computers with the client agent installed. Remotely accessing computers allows you to control those computers from your own desktop with (or in some cases without) the other users consent.
